Job Summary
OHB Sweden is a Swedish provider of space systems and develops builds tests and operates satellites for different types of space missions within communications earth observation space research and exploration. We deliver satellites and sub-systems for low-earth-orbit geostationary and interplanetary missions.
We are now looking for an enthusiastic and dedicated Electronics Engineer!
General information:
All our projects involve a very broad range of expertise covering for example design analysis embedded software operations EMC thermal testing and integration. This requires a broad and flexible skill set for all those working at OHB Sweden. With this in mind we are looking for a skilled Electronics Engineer.
An Electronics Engineer is expected to be able to perform:
- System level design activities
- Avionics unit level design activities including simulations analysis validation and testing (functional performance environmental)
- Design of Electrical Ground Support Equipment (EGSE) in the field of data communication and power electronics
Naturally all these steps require close interactions with the other experts in house covering the other areas of engineering such as EMC Embedded SW Thermal Mechanical RF as well as other electrical engineers; a strong team-oriented mindset is key.
The work is mostly executed in a typical office environment but the hardware is handled in our own clean rooms electrical labs and environmental labs. The job therefore entails a mixed work environment of typical engineering office environment whilst also being comfortable and knowledgeable in a Lab Environment.
The Electronics Engineer will work in the Avionics and Electrical Department and report to the Head of Department. The position is based in OHB Sweden premises in Kista Stockholm. The expected duties are the following:
Task breakdown:
- Design and system engineering in the areas of electronics power and related applications.
- Defining and designing test procedures setups documenting (drawings schematics) with rather open initial definitions.
- Support ongoing projects in the engineering including creating procedures procuring hardware integrating the test executing the test and documenting the results.
- Support future programs and projects with planning and budgeting for the purpose of proposals.
- Design of electrical support equipment.
Required qualifications:
- Master Level degree in Electrical Engineering or similar
- Fluent in English
- >3 years experience in an electronics design and testing environment
- Proficiency in Altium or other similar circuit & routing design program
- Proficiency in Analog electronics design (Amplification filtering acquisition)
- Proficiency in Power electronics design (Conversion isolation EMC)
- Familiarity in Digital design (microcontrollers FPGA)
- Familiarities with compiled languages (C C) and scripting languages (Python)
- Familiarities with MATLAB and Simulink
- Familiarities with basic mechanical construction for electronics
- Familiarities with thermal handling of electronics
- Familiarity with hardware handling and testing mostly in time domain with voltages up to 1kV and / or currents up to 30A
Advantageous additional qualifications:
- Familiarity with Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC)
- Familiarity with Space Radiation Environments and Effects on electronics
- Familiarity with CE marking
- Additional related certifications
- Experience in the Space Business and knowledge of the European Cooperation for Space Standardization (ECSS) is a merit
- Fluent in Swedish
Team working and ability to work autonomously are key to a typical day. Some travel may be required (2-3 trips per year).
If you feel confident that you meet the above requirements have a strong desire to contribute to space development are keen on taking responsibility within electronics and testing and can enjoy spending your working hours with contagiously nerdy people then we are looking forward to hearing from you!
